this [is] the thing which Jehovah hath commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, To those good in their eyes let them be for wives; only, to a family of the tribe of their fathers let them be for wives;

7 Ajeh chu Israel chate akonna goulo hohi

and the inheritance of the sons of Israel doth not turn round from tribe unto tribe; for each to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers, do the sons of Israel cleave.

'And every daughter possessing an inheritance, of the tribes of the sons of Israel, is to one of the family of the tribe of her father for a wife, so that the sons of Israel possess each the inheritance of his fathers,

9 Goulo gamsung hi phungkhat akonna phung dang a ki chonlut thei louhel ding, ajeh chu Israel chaten ama ama chenna gamsung cheh chu kituptah a akiven kol cehh ding ahi, tia thu napeh ding ahiye.

and the inheritance doth not turn round from [one] tribe to another tribe; for each to his inheritance do they cleave, the tribes of the sons of Israel.'
